Happy Birthday Stevie Wonder

The obvious thing would be to play singer and social activist Stevie Wonder’s tribute to Martin Luther King, Jr. and the fight to get his birthday recognized as a national holiday. The single Happy Birthday failed to hit Billboard’s Top 100 list but it did reach #2 on the U.K. charts in August of 1981. (Thanks, Wikipedia!)

But while I appreciate the song’s message (and supported the cause back in the day) it’s just not one of my favorites. Mind you, Stevie’s got a rich catalog to draw from, which is how we’ve ended up with this delightful playlist.

Hit the Play arrow, turn it up, and sing right along – you know you want to!
​
Happy 66th birthday, Stevie, and thanks for all the great tunes!
